He's flat-out doing the vehicles at the moment, but I hope the infantry
will be along before too long.

We already do the "rangetruck" (SF25-29A) which is kind of Humvee sized,
but may get round to some smaller stuff eventually.

Basically nothing.

Yes, but we haven't tried them out yet.... :)

Not very - the old KV were very oversized and a bit crude, the new ones
match the human figs better. Appearance and uniforms are similar, but
weapons are all new designs.

The aliens supplement will be out as soon as I can get it written, but
other things (like the FT fleet book, FTII, FMA etc) keep getting in the
way. No, the Kryomek won't be in it (they were actually not in SG1
either -
the guy who did the weapons manual for me just put in some "generic
aliens
with bioweapons"...)

The only real difference is the carrier has an additional "bay" under
the
main spar that joins the fore and aft hull sections, which is the
fighter
storage area. We have a side view in the new '97 catalogue (UK) which
makes
this clearer.
